1. When people lose their ability to memorize data they have amnesia. Amnesia also refers to an inability to recall information that is stored in memory. In simple terms, amnesia is the loss of memory.
2. The Wilderness School is a place were "the kids are the animals". The kids who go there are people who have done bad things and this was the kind were they would be disciplined.
3. Piper was wearing faded jeans, hiking boots, and a fleece snowboarding jacket. Her hair is brown and is cut choppy and uneven, with thin strands braided down the sides. She wore no makeup and her eyes changed colors like a kaleidoscope--brown, blue, green.
4. Leo looks like a Latino, Santa’s elf with curly black hair, pointy ears, a cheerful, babyish face, with a mischievous smile that told you to not let this guy near matches or sharp objects. His long nimble fingers wouldn’t stop moving--drumming on the seat, wiping his hair back, or fiddling with the buttons on his jacket.
5. I think that the coin is a symbol of war or that it is a weapon, and the inscription is IVLIVS, which is Julius Caesar’s Greek name, or IVLIVS Caesar.
6. This means he knew that a monster was hiding in their school waiting to kill the half bloods.
7. I think that the extraction team was coming to bring them back to Camp Half Blood because there were 3 of them to recruit.
8. They are referring to them as being half mortal (person) and half god.

7. What did Leo have to do to the dragon?
8. Why did Leo name the dragon, "Festus?"
9. In the cave where the dragon lives, it said, "Bunker 9." Why is this important to the story?
10. How was this cave similar to the dream Leo had?
1. Tia Callida is Leo's crazy babysitter who watched over him until he was five she is A.K.A. Hera the Queen of the Gods.
2. 4 strange things she did were she made Leo sleep in the fireplace with a live fire going but he didn't get burnt at all. When he was three she let him play with knives and told him that he must learn his blades early, she gave him a stick when he was four and she told him to poke a snake and said "where is you bravery young hero? Show me that the Fates were right to choose you." When he was five Tia gave him a pad of paper and crayons and Leo drew a picture of the boat he saw when he was two but the wind carried it away and she just laughed at him and had him sit in the fire she made him make.
3. I think that this means that she wanted to remember what she said about her breaking his spirit by killing his mom so she wants him to remember the night when his mom died so that he will remember the pain of it.
4. Leo wanted to run back there and say he was joking about going and that he remembered the night so he wants to go along so he can "face plant her; Leo-style"
5. Leo caught the dragon by removing his control disk while he was caught inside one of the camps traps and Leo cleaned it so he would function properly and lead him to his home.
6. A Dryad is a tree nymph or spirit that lives amongst the trees and she made a gesture at Leo that was probably very rude for a Dryad.
7. Leo had to clean the dragons control disk because it was corroded and he had to wipe of the grime even though some circuits were beyond repairing with the tools and knowledge at his disposal.
8. He named the dragon Festus because it is his fathers name except without the 'he' in front of it and spelled differently.
9. It might have to do with the other Hephaestus kid who created every thing in the bunker and named it bunker nine because he belonged to the cabin nine and when Leo went on his quest he would come here later to finish some of the projects to help him fight the sleeping woman he saw the night his mom died.
10. I think that the cave is similar because the hangar was dark and he remembered when he got locked in the workshop it was dark and his mom died when he was locked in.

How did Piper figure out that the coach had been preparing her to be a demigod? 2. Why didn't Piper's father ever play Native American parts? 3. Tell about Piper's dream.

LeoXXIII 11. What line of the Great Prophecy kept going around in Leo's head and what does it mean? 12. What message did Earth Mother send to Leo? What do you think was meant about being his First Mother?
1. She figured this out when she thought about how he always told her to push harder and let her fight her own battles against the mean girls. 2. Pipers father never played Native American parts because he thought it was too close to home and that it was easier to play someone he's not. 3. Pipers dream was her on top of the same mountain with Encleadus and he was telling her that she would either live with her father or die with her friends but she believes that she can do both. I think that this might happen or Piper, Leo, Jason will go to this mountain and get her dad by fighting the giant and I think this because most demi-god dreams end up telling the future or linking them with a god, giant, demon, etc. 4. The giant gave her the decision of either living with her father or die with her friends. 5. He started falling when his head jerked to the side and he hit an invisible wall probably created by Encleadus. 6. They landed in Detroit by a closed car plant named Monocle Motors. 7. This means that he sounded like he has no chance in fixing Festus so he sounded really down. 8. Deja vu is the sense or knowing that you have done something or been somewhere before and Jason feels like its the same with his life. 9. Monocle means a pair of glasses for one eye, and the car plant was a home to a bunch of angry cyclopes who have... one eye, so the name was a reference to who lived there. 10. A cyclopes came up the stairs imitating Jason's voice and told her she was just in time for dinner. 11. The line that he was remembering was "to storm or fire the world must fall" and this might mean that a storm=Jason or fire=Leo whoever saves the day the world will still end. 12. She said that they need him desperately and she said that he is the most important of the seven in some ways and he could just walk away from his friends and be safe from danger. I think that she said this is because like Jason and the she-wolf she could have known him since his birth.

What do you think it means? 15. How do you think they will find the storm spirits? 16. What was the big idea of this chapter?
1. He knew this because it smelled like burning motor oil and sour breath and a normal human doesn't smell this way. 2. A cyclopes is a humanoid monster that has one eye in the middle of their forehead and they can imitate any things voice. 3. A chain mail muumuu would look like a Hawian dress made for battle. 4. This means that she was talking about her being a child of Venus and that she was using her charmspeak on them. 5. When Piper tried to get Sump and Torque to release them Ma Gasket started yelling at them for how stupid they are, and Ma Gasket hit Sump over his head with a truck chasse to get him go get the salsa. 6. He could have been one of the Roman campers because they were purple shirts and speak in Latin and they call gods by their Roman form. He could have to do with why Jason doesn't feel right at the camp. 7. They were forced to shut down because the Titan War ended too fast and the cyclopes didn't need to make weapons any more. 8. Leo was unaffected by the kerosene because he can withstand extreme heat and fire because he is one of the fire Hepheastus kids. 9. He got rid of Ma by shooting the engine block 30 feet above with fire and it fell down silently crushing Ma Gasket. 10. The main idea for this chapter was about how Leo presented his secret ability to his friends by fighting the Cyclopes off and freeing Piper and Jason from the stake. 11. She couldn't because the cage was draining her power as it came back and used it to grow the second spire. 12. He believed that the Olympians were becoming too involved with their children too much and he thinks that that is what made the enemies awaken so he closed Olympus from all connections. 13. She got trapped because she went to this place to investigate what was going on there and then some giants came and captured her there. 14.

Later she found out that the snake she killed was the king of the snakes and they prepared for war. But before the war started the woman's husband said he would do anything to stop them from fighting, and the snakes said that he would have to take his wife to them so they could bite her and take her life.

She knew that her husband was Zeus and that was too much for her to take because she always kept on asking for immortality or eternally beautiful. 21. The missing frend that she was looking for was Percy Jackson but he wasn't there but she soon realized that JASON would be a key part in finding him. 22. 23.

The only way to get in was to cross the bridge of ice which Leo ended up destroying because she was excited and heated up. 25.

4 CHAPTER CUMARY Leo XLVI I In this chapter everyone was riding in the helicopter to go to the battle to save Hera. Leo was trying to pilot the helicopter while switching between confidence and panic because if he didn’t know what he was doing, he was scared; if he were fine he would be confident. Leo was thinking about his family and that Pipers dad was back so he kept thinking about his family who were gone forever. Leo was also thinking about the future if they got out alive and stopped the giant king from rising. This chapter was a recap of all the heroic things Leo has done and what he has sacrificed for it. Leo XLVIII Leo flew the chopper into the storm over the wolf house were Hera is being held. The storm was almost intentionally hitting them with the sleet and wind. Leo landed the helicopter right before a huge chunk of ice flattened the chopper. They looked around for the fight’s direction but soon realized it was all around them when Thalia came to greet them and guide them to Heras cage. Leo was remembering the prophecy line where it said the forge and dove shall break the cage and he got an idea of if Piper calmed the earth Leo could break through the cage. A hunter’s wolf brought back Thalia frozen in ice by the snow goddess Khione. Jason XLIX In this chapter Jason, Leo, and Piper met Khione at the wolf house and she told them about the plans she had for destroying the roots of the gods and turning demigods against each other. She told them that it was her who froze the dragon and had all of the snowstorms spam them their whole trip and that it was her who had Lyacon track them down and she provided updates to Enceladus of their quest. She also wanted Leo to join her because she thought that his skills would be helpful. In the end Khione was one of the bad people. Jason L In this chapter Jason is fighting like crazy against tons of monsters and demons. Jason is fighting them with a storm spirit called tempest who is charging through the other monsters as he watches his friends as they fight where he saw Piper holding her own as she stunned the ogres and then sliced them apart.

2. Tell me four strange things that Tia Callida did and how that relates to the story.
3. When the sleeping lady told Leo, "Remember this night, little hero, when they ask you to oppose me," what do you think this means?
4. Tell me what is going on at the end of this chapter.
5. How did Leo catch the dragon?
6. What is a
7. What did Leo have to do to the dragon?
8. Why did Leo name the dragon, "Festus?"
9. In the cave where the dragon lives, it said, "Bunker 9." Why is this important to the story?
10. How was this cave similar to the dream Leo had?
1. Tia Callida is Leo's crazy babysitter who watched over him until he was five she is A.K.A. Hera the Queen of the Gods.
2. 4 strange things she did were she made Leo sleep in the fireplace with a live fire going but he didn't get burnt at all. When he was three she let him play with knives and told him that he must learn his blades early, she gave him a stick when he was four and she told him to poke a snake and said "where is you bravery young hero? Show me that the Fates were right to choose you." When he was five Tia gave him a pad of paper and crayons and Leo drew a picture of the boat he saw when he was two but the wind carried it away and she just laughed at him and had him sit in the fire she made him make.
3. I think that this means that she wanted to remember what she said about her breaking his spirit by killing his mom so she wants him to remember the night when his mom died so that he will remember the pain of it.
4. Leo wanted to run back there and say he was joking about going and that he remembered the night so he wants to go along so he can "face plant her; Leo-style"
5. Leo caught the dragon by removing his control disk while he was caught inside one of the camps traps and Leo cleaned it so he would function properly and lead him to his home.
6. A Dryad is a tree nymph or spirit that lives amongst the trees and she made a gesture at Leo that was probably very rude for a Dryad.
7. Leo had to clean the dragons control disk because it was corroded and he had to wipe of the grime even though some circuits were beyond repairing with the tools and knowledge at his disposal.
8. He named the dragon Festus because it is his fathers name except without the 'he' in front of it and spelled differently.
9. It might have to do with the other Hephaestus kid who created every thing in the bunker and named it bunker nine because he belonged to the cabin nine and when Leo went on his quest he would come here later to finish some of the projects to help him fight the sleeping woman he saw the night his mom died.
10. I think that the cave is similar because the hangar was dark and he remembered when he got locked in the workshop it was dark and his mom died when he was locked in.

LeoXXIII
11. What line of the Great Prophecy kept going around in Leo's head and what does it mean?
12. What message did Earth Mother send to Leo? What do you think was meant about being his First Mother?
1. She figured this out when she thought about how he always told her to push harder and let her fight her own battles against the mean girls.
2. Pipers father never played Native American parts because he thought it was too close to home and that it was easier to play someone he's not.
3. Pipers dream was her on top of the same mountain with Encleadus and he was telling her that she would either live with her father or die with her friends but she believes that she can do both. I think that this might happen or Piper, Leo, Jason will go to this mountain and get her dad by fighting the giant and I think this because most demi-god dreams end up telling the future or linking them with a god, giant, demon, etc.
4. The giant gave her the decision of either living with her father or die with her friends.
5. He started falling when his head jerked to the side and he hit an invisible wall probably created by Encleadus.
6. They landed in Detroit by a closed car plant named Monocle Motors.
7. This means that he sounded like he has no chance in fixing Festus so he sounded really down.
8. Deja vu is the sense or knowing that you have done something or been somewhere before and Jason feels like its the same with his life.
9. Monocle means a pair of glasses for one eye, and the car plant was a home to a bunch of angry cyclopes who have... one eye, so the name was a reference to who lived there.
10. A cyclopes came up the stairs imitating Jason's voice and told her she was just in time for dinner.
11. The line that he was remembering was "to storm or fire the world must fall" and this might mean that a storm=Jason or fire=Leo whoever saves the day the world will still end.
12. She said that they need him desperately and she said that he is the most important of the seven in some ways and he could just walk away from his friends and be safe from danger. I think that she said this is because like Jason and the she-wolf she could have known him since his birth.

4 CHAPTER CUMARY
Leo XLVI I
In this chapter everyone was riding in the helicopter to go to the battle to save Hera. Leo was trying to pilot the helicopter while switching between confidence and panic because if he didn’t know what he was doing, he was scared; if he were fine he would be confident. Leo was thinking about his family and that Pipers dad was back so he kept thinking about his family who were gone forever. Leo was also thinking about the future if they got out alive and stopped the giant king from rising. This chapter was a recap of all the heroic things Leo has done and what he has sacrificed for it.
Leo XLVIII
Leo flew the chopper into the storm over the wolf house were Hera is being held. The storm was almost intentionally hitting them with the sleet and wind. Leo landed the helicopter right before a huge chunk of ice flattened the chopper. They looked around for the fight’s direction but soon realized it was all around them when Thalia came to greet them and guide them to Heras cage. Leo was remembering the prophecy line where it said the forge and dove shall break the cage and he got an idea of if Piper calmed the earth Leo could break through the cage. A hunter’s wolf brought back Thalia frozen in ice by the snow goddess Khione.
Jason XLIX
In this chapter Jason, Leo, and Piper met Khione at the wolf house and she told them about the plans she had for destroying the roots of the gods and turning demigods against each other. She told them that it was her who froze the dragon and had all of the snowstorms spam them their whole trip and that it was her who had Lyacon track them down and she provided updates to Enceladus of their quest. She also wanted Leo to join her because she thought that his skills would be helpful. In the end Khione was one of the bad people.
